Chef José Andrés and World Central Kitchen (WCK) have been busy. Over the last six months, WCK has served 150 million meals to Ukrainians and counting. And Rach and her husband, John, also joined in to help out.
"Everybody really needs to be aware of how much Rachael does, not only supporting World Central Kitchen, not only with money, but more than that. In Poland, Rachael and her husband John decided to show up and volunteer in the kitchen," says José.
In terms of what World Central Kitchen has accomplished since going to Ukraine to help, it's truly incredible.
"The situation has changed over the last six months. In the beginning of the war, everything was chaos. What World Central Kitchen did was try to close the gaps. When the supermarkets were closed, we tried to bring food [to those in need]. At one moment, we had more than 500 amazing restaurants helping us produce the hot meals," José explains. So, not only was WCK providing hot meals to refugees quickly and efficiently, but they were also supporting the restaurants at a time when they weren't making any money. Incredible!
